Albania implemented its first set of 14 National Accounting Standards (NAS), which were prepared in compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards, in 2009. The 15th standard, specifically the Accounting Standard for financial reporting by micro-entities, was added to this set in 2011 and a 16th standard, relating to the reporting for non-profit enterprises, was added in 2015. In 2014, the National Accounting Council of Albania (NACA) performed a major revision of this existing framework of NAS. The focus of this paper is to analyze the current status, as well as the development of accounting and financial reporting in Albania for the Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). An international standard of financial reporting for SMEs was issued by the International Accounting Standards Board but was not fully endorsed by the European Community, nor by the NACA, who instead chose to revise their current NAS. In this study, we provide a general overview of the accounting regime and platforms currently applied in Albania, by focusing on the changes over the recent years. We also depict the main differences between the IFRS for SMEs and the NAS in Albania in treatment of several elements of the financial statements.

If this standard is not issued, they have to follow the new FAS (which is stage of adopting IFRS – full convergence 2012) to arrange their financial reports. The application of this FAS-EWPA based IFRS is relatively more complex and expensive for small and medium enterprises. FAS-EWPA adopted some parts of IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) for small-medium enterprises (IFRS for Small-Medium-sized Entities/SMEs). This study aims to describe the layout of the difference measurement, assessment, report and the implementation of auditing standards between FAS-IFRS and FAS-EWPA.

While in presentation assertions as has been described earlier, the FAS-EWPA has a simpler form than with FASS, therefore there is a definitely difference in terms of the presentation between the two.

Accounting has an important role in the progress of MSMEs. This is due to the existence of good accounting records and in accordance with established accounting standards, it can help small businesses in making the right decisions, facilitate in obtaining credit from creditors and can provide accurate and timely information. By using financial statements as a basis for looking at the financial condition of a business, every decision taken by a business actor is based on real financial conditions. Seeing the importance of the level of knowledge of small entrepreneurs to the preparation of simple financial statements based on MSME Financial Accounting Standards in Indonesia, the researcher is interested in conducting a study entitled "Identification of the Level of Knowledge of Small Entrepreneurs on the Preparation of Simple Financial Statements Based on SAK-EMKM in the Medan Labuhan Sub-District Environment."
